Active & Connected Seniors Program

CultureLink – in partnership with United Way of Greater Toronto – has begun the Active & Connected Seniors Program that aim to maintain an inclusive safe space where low-income, newcomer and radicalized persons 55 years of age or older living in South-Parkdale find a home away from home.

Every Monday and Wednesday, an average of 40 seniors from different nationalities meet to spend the afternoon together and to participate in a number of activities designed to promote physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, social, and intellectual wellness.

Our program offers year-round settlement services workshops and English classes, as well as intergenerational programming through Global Roots Garden in partnership with The Stop Community Food Centre.
